Magic Recipe Screen
The "Magic Recipe Screen" is designed to find stocks of quality businesses selling at low multiples of free cash flow. Inspired by Joel Greenblatt's "Magic Formula Investing" (as described in The Little Book that Beats the Market), this combination has been shown to produce market-beating investments over short-term time horizons (1 year or less).
All stocks in this screen meet the following critiera:
- Return on Equity over 15% and Return on Assets over 3%. (quality business)
- Debt-to-Equity ratio under 1.0. (financially healthy)
- Price-to-Free Cash Flow ratio under 15. ("cheap" valuation)
